I am a Permanent Resident Alien here in the U.S. with a British passport & my 5 yr old daughter has her American passport. We are traveling abroad next week and I had a silly question - when we return to the States, I assume that we will be allowed to stay together when coming through Immigration at the airport? Will it matter if we utilize the US citizens line or the Non-US citizens line? Thanks.

If you are PR and your daughter is US citizen you go to US line.

Green card holders generally go through the US citizen line. It should be clearly marked. As a practical matter, I don't think any immigration officer is going to give you a hard time whichever line you end up going through.
OP, if there is a non PR/citizen in your group, you must go through the long line. PR are eligible to go through the short line with citizens.

Have you ever tried this IRL? I'd love to see you risk it.
If one of the immediate family members is a US citizen, then the whole immediate family can go via the US citizens line.
